The game sites are weaving narration, Of doom and/or maybe salvation. It seems in their haste, they’re suffering a case, Of premature TES-speculation. Well, unless they paid to read the Game Informer article. Looking forward to getting my hands on some REAL details about the The Elder Scrolls Online. On and off this week, I’ve been dipping into the world of TERA. It’s been a busy RL week, and my Wurm horses are ever in need of feeding, so I’ve not had as much time to play as I might normally, but I have gotten my Mystic up to level 20, and a Slayer up to 12. As such, I’ve had a few thoughts about the game that I figured I probably ought to get down on paper.
Lo, for on this day the MMOsphere has been overtaken by posts announcing the beginning of the Newbie Blogger Initiative. For the next month, many more-or-less established gaming bloggers will be trying to encourage and guide the next wave of eager writers! We bloggers may appear as giants, striding across the web striking down all who oppose us with our vorpal opinions+1. Or we might just seem a bit noisy and annoying. Either way, it’s right easy to set […] The TERA head-start began about an hour ago, but I have yet to actually get into the game! I have been too busy dithering over the exact bone-structures of my starting team of characters! Arkenor is looking a bit dourer than I like, but it’s rather hard to wipe the grumpy expression off the faces with decent beards. Maltheas is a little distressed that he can’t be a rat, but I have managed to convince him that raccoons are also […] I’m not very good at staying mad at EQ2. I *am* still rather bothered about the ProSiebenSat business, particularly the complete radio silence we’ve had from SOE since their statement a month ago. Their reluctance to post has been only matched by my own, for which I beg your indulgence. However, I have a rather Celtic temper, in spite of living here in the fine city of Norwich, and while I’m quite good at getting annoyed, I tend to cool […] As you know by now, SOE is selling its European players, to a company called ProSiebenSat.1. OK, technically, they’re selling them the exclusive rights to run the games within Europe (including the UK), but that includes all the characters on the European servers, and the details of anyone with a character there. The value of the playerbase has certainly been accounted for in the deal, and so we have been passed like chattels to a new master. So who are […] I am going to make a much larger post about this later today, once I have been topped up with the elixir which permits my brain to operate at an acceptable level of functionality. Its depletion over the last month is partially responsible for the lack of posts. Going onto a 3-month, instead of monthly testosterone injection has created a rather extended and unpleasant trough. Today, that gets sorted, at least for a while. It should balance out somewhat, eventually. […] |
